Actually your right, the Hartman maps do not say there is a mill on Laurens Branch.The Manumuskin Management Plan states that there was a mill stone removed from the Laurens Branch in the 40's I believe. It's a sizable plan and I"ll have to see if I can find the page and I"ll do a screen shot...

I need some help from our historians on here. Me and a friend of mine have been exploring in a couple areas of Cumberland County and have acquired a few mysteries that neither of us know the answers to.I wouldn't even know where to find the answers outside of the great historians that hang out...

Dan How did they get your phone? Break into your car? I guess Canadians have their trash as well.

My black Lab yanked my wife off the front step and knocked her out when she landed on her face. Luckily I was not home or the dog would have died that day.That was two years ago.Her neck still bothers her constantly to this day.

Destroyed the tower? Or the fence around it?

Took your money to build it.It's taking your money to stop you from accessing it.

I have made dandelion/chicory coffee from roasted roots of both plants mixed 50/50. The Dandelion gives it a coffee smell but the chicory gives it a sweeter flavor.I like the smell of coffee but not the taste.

It was such a pretty drive.That will be history.

So am I right about the wild lettuce? Seventh pic below the aerial.
